Hey, so i have some old spk pros, these ones
Click for larger image

As you can imagine, they are pretty beat up now, and the liners are packed out to shit.

I cut off the leather, cause it looks gay and is just extra weight, but my main concern in comfort.

The boots are size 27.5, but i am told so far that a 27 shell is the same as a 27.5 shell, so what i would like to do is get a 27 liner because a more snug boot wouldn't hurt. I hear a lot of positive reviews about these "intuition" liners. Is intuition a brand? or more or a design type of liners? could someone point me in the right direction as the where i could find these liners.

Any experiences others have had with putting in new liners in their SPKs would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the help NS

intuition is a brand of lines but they are expensive but worth it if they would fit in the shell properly. their website is http://www.intuitionliners.com/

depending on where your boot feels loose, you might be able to use foam shims to get back to a better fit. here's one website that sells foam inserts specifically for ski boots that fit between the liner and the shell:

Look into an Intuition liner for sure.
Just for clarification, it's the liners that Full Tilt uses, and some other boots use them as well.

I have a Pro liner from Intuition (came with the FT First Chair), and they are seriously the greatest liners ever. Incredibly warm and comfortable, and of course, can be heat fitted

Look into a pair.

thanks for the help guys +K.

i think i'd go with liners b/c not only do they feel a did bit lose, but I'm starting to notice that the pressure from the buckles isn't uniform along the boot, instead I'm getting pressure points

Seriously they will only degrade further. Mine were problem after problem. You'd probably be much better off seeing a fitter and getting new boots if you can afford it. I just got hawx 120s and they're so sick. Like night and day comin from those damn spk pros.

if i were u i would put in an intuitiion liner and a booster strap. The liners really help after u mold them because they fit to every single curve on ur foot and the boot. And the strap will help u get it tighter which is what u want to eliminate shinbang
